    My father, Angelo Pupillo of Binghamton NY has passed away on Nov 10, 2022. Some of you may know him as an enthusiast of 50s leadsleds, having built a number of them.

    I have in my possession his last customs, a 55 Mercury and 63 Ford Galaxie. Both of these cars will continue to be shown, but in central Florida rather than upstate NY. They will be shown in honor of my father to keep the era of kustoms alive.

    I do know both have some sorting required to survive the south. Cooling, suspension, some chrome and A/C systems will be retrofitted, but overall, they will not change. I hope he is watching me having fun with his creations. 10632.jpeg 20221114_105317.jpg 20221114_114249.jpg

  3. those cars look very well sorted, they may be fine to roll down south as is.

    RIP Angelo, I remember his cars at some of the East Coast events. He would be proud of you.
